    I fled from the Midwest because there were no good jobs outside of the oil and gas industry, and ended up in the Seattle area. Saving up and moving cost 2 years of my life, Im not sure I could do it again.

    …and I did apply to some jobs on the west coast, although most of my apps were around Seattle.

    But please tell me, where should I have went instead of Seattle?

      Honestly Seattle is a pretty good place for tech jobs, it’s just that the cost of living isn’t much better than California or other big tech hubs.
